Aug 31, 2009 Orange brown, little rust/dirty around the bottlecap. Bubbly white head. Aroma is a tad sour, some leather and wildflower pollen. Somewhat broken, watery sweet and caramel, herbal finish.

Jul 31, 2008 Its not the Quercus, this beer gains most of its tastiness from the oak barrel. Still though a pretty red ale with just that right hint of toasted barley.

Jun 29, 2008 Bottle poured a clear reddish amber with a lingering ring of amber foam. Aromas of butterscotch, carmel and fruittiness. Palate was light to medium bodied and smooith. Flavors of butterscotch, light carmel and light fruittiness with a smooth slightly astringent finish.

Jun 25, 2008 Draft at the brewpub. A hazy amber beer with a thin white head. The aroma is sweet malty with light notes of caramel. The flavor is sweet and very malty, but also with notes of berries, leading to a dry bitter finish. Nice.

Jun 14, 2008 Aroma...non-existent. Appearance is its most redeeming quality. At least it shows some color; a rich tangerine with just a hint of rose in its thickest point. Not a significant head but a thin ring remains throughout the gulp. Aroma is sickeningly sweet as is its flavor. Tastes like saccharine...artificial. Yuck.

Apr 28, 2008 Aroma is floral and resious.
Pours orange-amber with a compact cream color head. Lacing is good.
Taste is sweet malt with citrus grapefruit hops. Bitter dry finish. IBU’s 25-30? Overall taste is like a sweet grapefruit. Tastes more like a full APA than an Irish Ale. Pretty tasty overall.
From a bottle.

Apr 14, 2008 clear caramel red color , thin head fizzle, strawbeery nose, bright red fruity aroma, bold dry caramel flavor, butter, toffee crunch, mild backdrop of unrecognizable hop bitters, not as much of a fruit hop citrus flavor as reds typically have, should be more mild for true red status, sort of an abrasive flavor though it is a good flavor, i’m ust not sure that it’s appropriate per style, good ale though, surprised it’s only %5, tastes much bigger and bolder

Mar 16, 2008 Bottle. Poured pale red with thin fast dissipating head. Mild hoppy aroma. Light tangy flavour with a slim body. Light hop finish.
I would not call this aggressively hopped or a complex beer.
